Default RE: Take Down LB Build a Long

Ok class take your seat and be quite in the back row

The UPS man just delivered most of what I need to finish this bow off.

I was hoping to have it all finished this week but it dont look like it is going to be.


Ok we had 1 more thing to do to the form to finish it off and that was to put in a Alignment pin.

So to start with mark the center of the Butt end of the form.



Then measure down 1 6/8" for a 68" bow and 2 6/8" for a 66" bow.



Then with a 1/4" drill bit mark off 3/8" that is going to be the depth of our holes.



Now carefully drill the 2 holes to the depth.



Thats all I am gonna do today it is just too hot and humid out in the shed I will make a start on the limbs tomorrow when I get home from work.

Here are the limb lams I am going to be using well except for the Walnut I am going to use some of the Curly Maple that Kent sent me on the back of the limbs.



The wedge is Purpleheart and the front of the limb will be Cocobolo with the Curly Maple on the back of the limbs they should look good
